Lochmere Golf Club

About
Located near the banks of Swift Creek, Lochmere Golf Club has plenty of water incorporated into the layout, coming into play on nearly every hole. The golf course stretches across a lush, gently rolling landscape sprinkled with mature trees and ponds. The terrain showcases the best in Triangle golf. At just over 6,600 yards it is not particularly long, but it provides plenty of challenges. It is a tight course that will test your accuracy with narrow fairways lined with trees. The small greens that are heavily protected by well placed bunkers demand thoughtful strategy and pinpoint control. The golf course offers a fair challenge but it is still accessible for beginners, especially from the forward tees. Lochmere G.C. is a favorite among Cary locals, both for its enjoyable design and its affordable rates.

Nice course
Overall a very good course for the money. Greens were in great condition. Staff is friendly.
Great day of golf
Solid course, well laid out. Greens are super hard so be prepared for your ball to bounce off the green a lot.
Pretty walk, average course
Easy walk for a reasonable price, but unacceptable tee box conditions and muddy hard-pan conditions around greens due to the overcrowding trees. Nice range but needs a better chipping green. Consistently poor tee time and pace of play enforcement but nice staff. Most of the issues (including the wetness) could be solved by less trees and more sunlight on the course. Pace of play could be better enforced but kind of predictable due to the bottleneck course design.
Staff was very friendly. Carts were late models and clean with mounted coolers and ball/club washers. Practice putting green was large and well kept. No holes on it, just surface flag sticks. I'd prefer holes. Tees, fairways and greens were in great shape. Greens rolled like the practice green so that was a plus. Some of the tees on the back 9 were being resodded, but it didn't affect play. The refreshment cart passed by at least 4 times during the round. I was told it's not an every day thing yet, but should be starting soon. There were restrooms, water and ice at the midpoint facility. All in all it was a great day. I'll play there again soon.
A must play
Amenities are nice, range, chipping, putting areas great, ,greens fast true
Average condition
Starter was rude about our arrival threatening to o not let us out on time. tee boxes and fairways were very rough.
Decent course for weekend golfers
Course is ok shape. Greens were much better than the rest of the course. Good layout but tree or water trouble on almost every hole.
Pace of play could be better
well maintained course
It worths for the price. When I need practice, it is a very perfect course because it is a pretty easy course.
Course conditions
Other than a couple of tee boxes needing repair the corse was in great shape
